Neroli Cologne

As you can probably tell, this is not going to be a long lasting one, owing to the light floral note that this encapsulates :) That said, I consider it my benchmark 'neroli' scent. Originally a gift for my mother, I thought this was just too good not to enjoy it as well, so I ended up with a bottle for myself not long after. I can imagine walking in a field of orange groves in late spring somewhere on a Mediterranean coast, with the hot air blowing this heavenly floral whiff in my direction. You can bet that come summer I'll shower in this stuff and will not hold back on the trigger!! I find it very refreshing in the summer heat, light and inoffensive and yet quite pronounced for a good 4-6 hours. I can still smell the dry-down beyond that time, which has traces of the top/mid mixed with the ylang-ylang in the base. Overall, it is a very linear scent so don't expect much mutation here. Easily my favourite from the C&S line. 4/5 overall for me.

I agree that this scent does not last long. However, I think the mens' cologne #88 is very similar and more powerful.

This is a strange one. I really love all kinds of citrus, and am always looking for the ones you can wear in winter. And this is one you can pull of in any weather and in any circumstance, as the citrus transforms in 10 minutes into something aldehyde and sticky. Not really bad, but not altogether fresh and uplifting either. This is a certain try before you buy, and first wait for it to develop before buying, especially for this price-tag. It certainly is for the more mature crowd. Besides my reservations, the bottle is very disappointing, I really don’t like the Cavalli/Versace blingbling, but this is way too simple and cheap, once again considering the price-tag. I give it a 6 for originality, but thats it.

This is my favorite neroli I've sampled and it smells like the real deal. This is the closest thing I could find to the neroli hydrosol one gets in Morocco in the spring. It's a bit expensive for what it is honestly but it does the true neroli fragrance so well, without sweetening it up unnecessarily and without going overly soapy. I have been pleasantly surprised with the performance too as I wouldn't normally expect something like this to do too well but it isn't bad for a citrus base. Overall it's really nice and a great fresh scent that one can wear any time.

I like this wonderful smell of orange and natural blend of Ylang-Ylang earlier then comes the full force of orange blossom and neroli in the background giving your brand soon. So I would rate it: Smell: 8/10 Projection: 7.5/10 Longevity: 7/10

Me ha gustado, ideal para el verano. Es de los perfumes que en los que el olor se nota y perdura más si aplicas algo en la ropa.

Smells good when sprayed on paper - don't be fooled, try it on skin. Not that interesting on skin; faint and very forgettable, more ylang than neroli! Try before committing! Any AdP is a much better option imo

A dry, linear basically one note scent, and a disappointing representation of that note. I can't say I've ever actually smelled an orange blossom in real life, but if it does actually differ so much from the fruit it produces, I'll be really disappointed. But like I said, linear and dry. There are so many great neroli based scents out there, that this just comes of as way too dull and lacking any sort of life to it. It doesn't last at all either, thankfully in this case. And then add both the Grandma and urine tinges I got from it, safe to say I don't enjoy this even remotely

The best thing about this perfume is: PURE Neroli. I like the idea of pure fragrances, without mixing in different notes. The worst: Stayingpower: Non-existing (this is an Eau De Cologne). The price. Just not worth that ridiculus price for a "single note" perfume

A friend of mine gave me a sample and I found the scent extremely bad. So I guess Neroli is not my type of scent. It's so strong and harsh and even for a man I wouldn't want such a scent.

This IS neroli and orange blossom (the two are different, I encourage you to familiarize yourself)... BUT this version is spicier, richer, and a million fathoms deep and green. So the opening: Sharp and piercing, a little juicy. Definitely orange with orange flower. Immediately charging out of the bottle with the gravitas of clove (there is euginol in this, and it is tightly woven from opening all through the dry down) 1 hour in: the sharpness mellows to a woody, heafy and almost humid freshness (undoubtedly the ylang ylang playing with orange blossom)... here the clove spiciness dances with the rich exotic ylang ylang, almost mimicking fresh-cut cedarwood and a green mysteriousness reminiscent of artemisia or tarragon.... even though those notes aren't present in the formula. 3 hours in: almost gone, but so many good things are fleeting. This is reduced to a gentle spicy green skin-scent. Disappointing, considering the cost - but neroli and orange flower are not cheap ingredients. This is nothing like Ferrari Bright Neroli. This is greener, deeper, and more masculine.

On my skin and to my nose, Czech & Speake NEROLI is a perfectly balanced blend of neroli and orange blossom. This is a real treat for lovers of those notes, as the darkness of the neroli tempers the sweetness of the orange blossom, creating a very pleasant effect. I am surprised that some reviewers find this to be a neroli soliflore, as it is a far cry from Guerlain Aqua Allegoria FLORA NEROLIA, which is quite dark and much closer to neroli essential oil than is this blend. The longevity of NEROLI is not as good as some of the other of the Czech & Speake colognes, but that is in part because there is no soapy drydown here. Neroli unlike some of the other "colognes" from this house, really is a cologne, not a perfume. This simple yet satisfying and very refreshing composition is well worth trying by enthusiasts of neroli and orange blossom, two distinct scents derived from the same plant but using different extraction processes.

this is a metallic Neroli, it opened well but them turned not after few seconds. metallic never worked for me. not a long lasting as well and vanishes within an hour turning into a very close skin essence. Edit (21st Dec 2024) WOW... after 10 years i'm back to it! I really don't know where the metallic BS i wrote up here came from! It is instead greeny neroliXorange blossoms with touch of spice. It is like the face cologne water from the 80s after a face clean shave but quite stronger and sharper. I like actually but the cooldown goes greener than citrus and neroli. Beautiful.

Bracing, fresh citrus opening and a recurrent ‘sniff-factor’ where you just can’t resist sniffing one’s wrist after a spray of Czech & Speake’s ‘Neroli’. I previously owned ‘Neroli Portofino’ by Tom Ford and ended up selling it as I wasn’t impressed. This version of Neroli is simply gorgeous, a compliment generator if ever there was one! The only downside is it’s longevity which by definition is limited to a couple of hours, but still worth the price - an absolute classic!

To my nose, this smells similar to Ferrari Bright Neroli, which is made in Italy. I can not tell the difference. They both last on my skin for 5 to 6 hours. I love this scent. I have used it since the mid 90's and I never want to be without it. I use C&S neroli when at home and use Ferrari Bright Neroli as an alternative and always when traveling, as it is a lot cheaper & if it gets lost at my hotel, it can easily get replaced.

Neroli is my all time favourite aroma (growing up on an orange farm helps) And this fragrance hits all the right notes for me. Its very linear and longevity is poor. But the freshness is so good. If you use the body products from this line and then the fragrance it improves staying power (layering works for most). Perfect smell for a lazy spring sunday.

This was pure Neroli on me, without the orange or ylang. I expected a bit more orange blossom too, but all I got was the distilled variety we call neroli. Not my favorite scent in the first place and in this scent, it is unalleviated. It is what it is named: Neroli. If you like neroli, you will like this. There seem to be no hidden notes to sabotage it.

This review is based on their sample. The most prominent note here is neroli. I don't really pick up the other notes. Below average projection and moderate longevity on my skin. If you love neroli, you'll definitely love this one.

Wonderfully uplifting, these notes are-it smells so much like Muelhens 4711 Original Eau de Cologne it makes me smile-save yourself a few bucks and buy that-you won't regret it.

Simple, sounds like one note :(. Похож for men after shave lotion. I do not advise the ladies.
